[Ding! Congratulations, Master. You have successfully obtained the reward: Senju Sage Body!]
...
When Orochimaru led Tsunade to find Mirai Uchiha, Mirai Uchiha was in the middle of a taijutsu clash with Hashirama Senju.
Neither of them used Ninjutsu or Kekkei Genkai—only pure hand-to-hand combat.
Meanwhile, Tobirama Senju stood nearby with his arms crossed over his chest, humming an unfamiliar tune.
Boom!
With a loud crash, Hashirama Senju's body shattered from a punch delivered by Mirai Uchiha.
"Mirai, truly impressive. Your strength these days is downright terrifying."
Hashirama's body automatically regenerated as he couldn't help but praise.
These days of training together had made one thing clear to him.
Mirai Uchiha was a genius unlike any other in the ninja world!
With such overwhelming power behind him, there was no doubt his goal would become reality!
[Ding! Congratulations, Master. You have successfully obtained the reward: +1 Physique!]
Hearing the system prompt, Mirai Uchiha's expression remained unchanged.
Although it wasn't the reward he desired most, he'd gained quite a bit from Hashirama during these past few days.
Forget about the superhuman strength—he was most satisfied with obtaining the Senju Sage Body.
Previously, he had obtained the Uzumaki Sage Body from Kushina Uzumaki. Now, he had acquired the Senju Sage Body as well.
Combined with Jugo's natural affinity and the Kaguya Clan's Shikotsumyaku…
Mirai Uchiha felt his body was only a step away from achieving the Perfect Sage Body.
"Mirai-san, hope I'm not interrupting?"
Orochimaru's raspy voice pulled Mirai Uchiha back to reality.
Lifting his gaze, Mirai Uchiha fixed his eyes on the blonde woman standing beside Orochimaru.
Like bountiful harvests hanging delicately upon slender branches, she radiated a unique charm.
Moving upward, her exposed skin was snowy white.
Her long swan-like neck extended gracefully from her collarbone.
Pink lips, a proud nose, and a pair of eyes burning with fury…
Hmm?
Why does she look angry?
Just as Mirai Uchiha felt puzzled, Tsunade gritted her teeth and snapped, "You little brat, where do you think you're looking?!"
Mirai Uchiha scoffed, "Tsk—never mind then, if you don't want me to look."
He lowered his gaze again, letting his eyes settle on her long Achilles tendon and rosy, slightly blushed toes.
Nothing makes me happier than beautiful feet.
Mirai Uchiwa wasn't picky—he had an artist's eye for beauty.
Tsunade noticed Mirai's gaze lingering on her feet, and a look of unease crept across her face.
Though his eyes stayed on what should've been an innocent spot, she couldn't shake the feeling that he was somehow getting away with something.
Seizing the moment, Orochimaru stepped in and said, "Mirai, this is Tsunade. She was once my teammate."
Mirai already guessed Tsunade's identity, so he simply nodded indifferently.
Standing beside him, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju wore expressions of shock, their mouths hanging open.
"Tsunade?"
"You're *Tsunade!*"
Hearing their voices, Tsunade finally looked at the two closely before exclaiming joyfully, "Great-Grandfather! Great-Uncle!"
Hashirama and Tobirama smiled as they stepped forward and patted Tsunade's head. "Little Tsunade, we never expected you'd grow up to be this tall already. Ha ha ha…"
At the sound of their cheerful laughter, tears welled up in Tsunade's eyes: "Great-Grandfather… The Senju Clan… Nawaki… They're all gone…"
Hashirama sighed: "Tsunade, everything's in the past now. Things will get better from now on."
Even the normally stoic Tobirama couldn't hold back: "It was my fault. I admit I took harsh actions against the Senju Clan back then."
Shaking her head, Tsunade deliberately changed the subject: "Great-Grandfather, Great-Uncle, why are you here?"
Tobirama snorted coldly: "Because of this evil… this Uchiwa brat."
Hashirama continued, "Mirai's Mangekyo Sharingan has a unique ability. We're helping him unlock even greater power."
As for Mirai's abilities, Tsunade already knew a thing or two.
There were always rumors that he could even mimic Bloodline Limits.
So upon hearing Hashirama's words, Tsunade immediately understood.
Mirai definitely wanted to obtain the power of [Wood Release]. But even so, there was no excuse for going this far!
Tsunade coldly demanded, "Mirai Uchiwa, how could you disturb the deceased like this?"
Before Mirai could answer, Hashirama spoke first: "Tsunade, I did this of my own free will."
"He freed Konoha from Hiruzen Sarutobi's control. You mustn't speak to him disrespectfully."
Tsunade glared defiantly at Mirai.
What need was there to be polite to a pervert who stared straight at her chest the moment he saw her?
Seeing Tsunade's challenging gaze, Mirai lifted the corner of his mouth slightly.
She had spunk.
That's precisely what makes it fun…
"Tsunade, tell me about what's happened to you these years."
Hashirama sat down cross-legged.
In these past few days, he had finally come to understand Mirai Uchiha's abilities.
He only needed to fight once per day; the rest of the time was free for them to spend as they wished.
Tsunade was his favorite granddaughter, and he wanted to know what she had experienced after his death.
Encouraged by Hashirama Senju, Tsunade gave a brief summary of her adventures over the years.
Especially her travels across various countries, where she gambled nonstop and lost every time, earning her the nickname "Walking Piggy Bank" in every gambling casino throughout the ninja world...
After hearing this, Hashirama Senju couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"No wonder you're my granddaughter! You take after me completely in that department!"
Tsunade sighed helplessly, unable to understand how he could take pride in something like that.
Seeing the three sharing a warm and joyful moment, Mirai and Orochimaru quietly slipped away.
Having both heard her stories before, Mirai and Orochimaru naturally didn't want to break the heartwarming mood.
"Mirai Uchiha-kun, I might be swamped lately, so don't hesitate to reach out if anything comes up."
With all the advanced experimental devices and precious materials in Konoha now under his supervision, Orochimaru had been extremely busy lately.
A flood of ideas had taken shape in his mind, and he was eager to begin experimenting right away.
Mirai Uchiha smiled and nodded, asking curiously, "Orochimaru, are the laboratory instruments in the village satisfactory? Should I order a batch of more advanced devices?"
Orochimaru smiled slightly, "Mirai Uchiha-kun, it's already more than enough."
"In all my years, I've never had access to such incredible resources."
Mirai Uchiha nodded, "Let me know if you need anything else."
"Yes!"
After parting ways with Orochimaru, Mirai Uchiha headed toward the Hokage Tower.
From afar, he saw a woman dressed in a nun outfit waiting downstairs.
Spotting Mirai Uchiha approaching, excitement flickered across the woman's face: "Lord Mirai!"
"Director Nonou?" Mirai Uchiha raised his eyebrows slightly. "What brings you here?"
Nonou Yakushi immediately said, "Lord Mirai, may I ask for your help with something?"
Mirai Uchiha glanced at the sky, then nodded in agreement: "Since it's already dinner time, let's discuss it while we eat."
"Yes."
Watching Mirai Uchiha walk ahead, Nonou adjusted her glasses and quickened her pace to catch up.
